Back Story: Been doing the graveyard Freight shift for a company chain. Last week I was set to work 7days in a row, after due to my error, I only worked 6.
Had 3days off then I came in to night and was told, "you voluntarily quit, go home."
I really don't know what I'm going to do now. The money itself wasn't an issue, but I just lost the insurance benefits for my family. Completely lost now.

Be careful until you get another job with benefits. |

I wonder how long life insurance takes to come into effect....and exactly what do they count as foul play. |

if they told u that u "quit" then you were terminated and are due renumerations
these faggot companies also like to pull this shit if ur due to receive majority after X years (manager conspires with senior staff to shit on you till ur head explodes and u quit, then they rehire u at base)
missing a day of work merits punitive measures, not "voluntary quit", cuz you didn't quit - you were terminated. |

Just so long as you didn't say something like "ya, I quit." You're probably entitled to unemployment at the very least. |

I highly doubt it, they wouldn't be that stupid most likely some small print on the terms of employment contract you have to sign when you first start. |

They can't just tell you that you quit. You were fired. I can pretty much guarantee you are entitled to something otherwise they wouldn't have tried to fuck you over by saying you voluntarily quit thus screwing you out of benefits. Not only that but if the firing can be seen as pure bullshit then you may be in a very good position here. Don't just roll over and die speak up and find out what you can do about it! You could also hit them with a formal lawsuit just for trying to pull one over on you, and if it happened to a lot of people involved with this company, a class action law suit. |

Voluntarily quit can be an advantage for CV reasons.
